Ham radio operators practice civil defense
3
By BRUCE SPENCE Kansan Staff Reporter
The airwaves were buzzing this weekend after members of the Douglas County Amateur Radio Club began amateur radio's 42nd annual national field day.
Operating from Wells Overlook Park, south of Lawrence, the club took part in a nationwide test for the preparedness of staff to operate in case of a natural disaster.
More than 12,000 harm radio operators throughout the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the Panama Canal Zone operate the American Radio Relay League.
The field day involved more than just a test. thouh.
"The whole idea is to go out and have fun and try to improve your score over what you had last year," said Pete Schumacher, of the Douglas County Amateur Radio Club.
Eric Hardman, Lawrence senior and club member, said that 30 of the 36 club members helped operate the two transmitters which were used to transmit data from was from 1 p.m. Saturday to 1 p.m. Sunday.
Hardman, who is also the emergency coordinator for the amateur radio emergency corps in the Lawrence area, said the main feature of the test was the points awarded for the number of operators reached.
He said the Douglas County club didn't score in that category.
Schumacher said that it was possible to complete two or three contacts a minute on the voice transmitter, but that the other contacts would be slower. The receiver was slower, in completing exchanges.
A special auxiliary station was set up to communicate with other operators through two satellites available for use by amateur radio operators.
Schumacher said careful records were kept for submission to the American Radio Relay League, which coordinates and scores the national competition.
He said that although individuals could compete through home stations, local club members were primarily involved in the club competition.
The club, Schumacher said, competed with other stations in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri as well as with other stations throughout the United States.
Hardman said the official results of the test might not be released for four or five months.
The club competition is one of the more popular divisions, he said.
"Competition is really fierce in this category." Harman said.
About 1500 stations were reached last year, he said.
Aided by a massive antenna perched at the park lookout tower, he was able to contact operators in Japan, Australia and Italy. Hardman said.
"Language barriers are not a particular
thing," he said. "Almost all hands speak
English."
Schumacher said many of the club members participated in an amateur radio emergency corps, which functioned in conjunction with civil defense.
He also said that a set of Morse code signals could be used to exchange signal reports, names and locations without having to use a language.

The corps engages in weather watch activities whenever a storm alert goes out from the Topeka weather service, Schumacher said.

Repair crews work in Dyche
"The repairs are nothing serious," Lawton said. "Occasionally the mortar comes out between the joints and has to be replaced."
Officials at the University still hope that another bid to become one of six regional centers for health planning, also to be funded by HEW, will be approved.
An old steam tunnel between Dyche Hall
Union is also being renovated, he said.
Chancellor Archie R. Dykes said he hadn't heard anything about the application one way or the other. He said there were always rumors whenever an application was submitted to HEW. An official decision is expected in September.
The ground displays will include a shrinking dollar, oil wells and Uncle Sam. An aerial display will be shot more than 150 feet high, he said.
The gates will open at 7 p.m. at Memorial Stadium and the show will begin at 8 with a demonstration by the Topeka Police Department trained dogs.
Jaycees claim biggest display
The Jaycees' Fourth of July celebration this year will have more fireworks than any other display in the state, Ray G. Price, chairman of the celebration, said last week.
Allen Hoffman, plant manager, said
Allen Hoffman, plant manager, said
to assess the damage.
The fireworks display will begin at dusk.
The breakdown began after a problem developed in one of the CFCA's six nitric acid units, knocking out its pollution control device.
Repair crews will probably be around Dyche Hall all summer, Keith Lawton, director of facilities planning and operations, said Friday.
Lawton said the projects would be completed in the summer if the weather remained good.
Professional inspectors were at the plant during the weekend to determine the extent
A spokesperson for HEW said Friday that a team of inspectors would visit both Columbia and Iowa City soon. The inspectors won't pass through Kansas City and won't test the medical center facilities there.
HEW has chosen 21 semifinalists from more than 200 institutions. The Kansas City bid isn't among them, although the University of Missouri at Columbia and the University of Iowa at Iowa City are contenders.
Heavy amounts of nitrogen dioxide gas billowed from the Cooperative Farm Chemicals Association (CFCA) on K-10 sites in New York and the worst breakdown in the plant's history.
The six centers will gather com-
panies in the region and will receive (electral aid) from HEF.
Co-op breakdown checked
Med center bid may be refused
A joint bid by the University of Kansas and the University of Missouri medical centers in Kansas City to become one of six national centers for health services research has been rejected by U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW).

Three of the six nitric acid units and the ammonia and ureic acid units were shut down, he said, leaving only three nitric acid units and two ureic acid units ammonium nitrate process in operation.
humanities at Haskell Indian Junior College, said Friday that he agreed to design some of the medals because it would aim to present the Indies' view of history.
The artists planned the collection with Franklin mint officials at a meeting last fall at the institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, N.M. after the mint officials visited Franklin Mint and Franklin Center, Pa., is the largest private mint in the country.
Some nitrogen dioxide, a potentially dangerous gas, is coming from one of three nitric acid units still in use. Hoffman said, but not at a dangerous level.
The unit is the only source of a material needed for other continuing plant applications.
Hoffman said there wasn't enough gas in the air to be dangerous as long as there was.
One side of the medal shows Indians riding horses, in wagons and walking, feel view images. Cherokee chief captain Cayetan son, son, son surrounded by a circle show the footprints of the journey, a broken peace pipe, significant broken and a sword, military force.
One medal that West has designed is "The Trail of Tears." This name was given to an event in 1838, when 15,000 Cherokee Indians from Georgia were forced by the U.S. Army to leave for lands west of the Mississippi.
There will be 50 sterling silver medals, one and three-fourths inches in diameter, each valued at $1,000. The medals, designed by the Franklin Mint, will present the traditional side of a historic event and the other side will show the event as one of the Indian artists in India.
Although he is helping to design the medals, West said that the event is "a great celebration."
He said he thought something should be done to change the way Indian history had been told.
"I can't see what the Indians have got to celebrate, because I should weil them, the loud one on land."
"The American Indian didn't have anything to do with the writing of his history, he said. If the Indians won an election and the masses massacred the Indians, it was a victory."
The average American has a stereotyped view of Indians and doesn't want to be bothered by them, West Virginia. I think all Indians have the same background.
West is one of two Kansas Indians chosen as designers. The other is Black-Basin Brown,
He said that the individual tribes had cultures that were very different.
Plant officials think the problem started when a high pressure boiler tube ruptured. Hoffman said the rupture wasn't serious, but effects would take considerable benefit.
West has a B.F.A. degree and a M.F.A. degree from the University of Oklahoma. His art has been exhibited in one-man show at the Whitney Museum, Nelson Art Gallery, in Kansas City, Mo. Some of his paintings are exhibited in the Smithsonian Institute. He has won the grand prize in the National Indian Show at Watteau, Chicago, Phillips Award from that center.

said. He said he didn't expect the group's final report for six to 12 months.
Howitz said the group's work would be done in two stages. By the end of the fall semester, the group hopes to develop a plan to meet the day care needs of the students. By the end of the spring semester, she said, I will recommend ways to implement the plan.
Faced with an increasing number of inquiries, proposals and complaints about the extent of the University of Kansas' daycare program, we formed a task force to study the matter.
Del Shanker, executive vice chancellor,
released the names of task force members
Friday. The task force will determine
more whether day care facilities are needed
at the University and if so, how the
University can provide them, he said.
Panel will study day care needs
The members are: Frances Horowitz, professor of human development who will head the task force; Kala Stroup, dean of William Balfour, vice chancellor for student affairs; Bonnie Patton, director of Affirmative Action; Moll Lafflin,
Lawrence graduate student; Charles Oldfather, professor emeritus of law; Nancy Denny, assistant professor of psychology; Terry Schwaner, Lawrence graduate student; and Bruce Woner, Hutchinson senior.
Horowitz said that Ben Zimmerman, associate professor of social welfare, had already conducted a survey of the need for campus child care facilities. The task force worked with the faculty to see whether it contains the necessary data to begin planning, she said.
Shaikel said the University had received an increasing number of requests for day camp trips, and Hilltop Day Care Center, in the past two months. The task force was established to give the University comprehensive rather than piecemeal answers to the situation, he added.
